My ability to overthink and panic about something that is inevitably completely fine is unmatched.
Spoileryes this is about the class I thought my grade would drop in and I was super worried about it (see a previous SU)
SpoilerThe teacher gave me an A ya'll
SpoilerI thought I was gonna fail

Spoiler
akasdkfjlaksjdflkasjdlkf
so I'm terrified my grade in ap art is gonna drop significantly
because I think the teacher is gonna start grading us in a way he didn't explain or warn us about at all?
and I kind of think the method super unfair, however I only overheard him talking about it and so I don't know the details
anyway so my super anxious self is very anxious about it,
HOWEVER
i cracked out the GPA calculator and worse case scenario (a D in the class) I still have over a 3.9 GPA
which means that worse case scenario I can still qualify for the scholarship I'm working towards
so worse case scenario everything should be fine
I'm writing this to convince myself and force myself to stop worrying about it
I literally should not care about this this much I know . . .
deep breaths

okay we're good
I think we're good

Do you ever just get so frustrated with something that on the one hand you want to rant about it for hours and on the other you just want to leave it alone?
I'm getting so close to being too tired to care anymore- which is probably good because I tend to care a little too much about what other people think.
Spoilerwelp that was vague.

Seconding Bookwyrm here, try to learn how the test works. Old tests are wonderful for this kind of thing.
And for math concepts you should try to ask your friends if they get it. In my experience they can explain better than teachers half the time
(If there's no one anywhere well my PMs are open. I have never passed ACT itself (non-American moment) so I'm definitely not the best person to help but maybe I can at least clear a couple things)

So I was at a family gathering last night, and my sisters fiance asked if anyone had any complicated/interesting fantasy book recommendations.
Me: *casually grabs a mistborn book I had with me* "Y'know . . ."
my entire family, in unison: "NOT AGAIN"
anyway, I got him to borrow the first trilogy from me, hopefully he actually reads it ^^

So
I've been doing my silly goofy little worldbuilding project (which I have yet to write anything down but shhhhhhh)
And I realized that if I ever publish the stories in it as books (or share the stories at all), to avoid spoilers, people would have to read them in near backwards chronological order. Because each story is so dependent on the reader not knowing what happened in the past before it, if that makes sense.
If we order the stories 1-7 chronologically, the reading order would literally be 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 7. (The last story is an outlier, and would need to come last, because it would spoil everything if you read it first.)
Honestly it's kind of a vibe, but I also think people would get mad so lol.
Like star wars but much, much weirder.

But why order them that way because Star Wars was only released the way it was because of when it was written. So if you have the idea now...why not just write them the right way?

Well, you see, because the first part of this I ever created was technically 6 right? with no thought to more stories in the world. But then I started writing backstory's for the characters that would be revealed as plot twists in 6. But those backstories are only the tip of the iceberg of what actually happened, thus the need to tell it as it's own story (like how the star wars prequels spoil who Darth Vader is). This is makes up number 4.
Then there's 5, which is also backstory for characters in 6, but happens a significant time after 4, so it has to be a separate story. And as stated above, the mystery and plot twist in 6 depend on you not knowing what happens in 4 and 5.
So what about 3? Well 3 is backstory for characters introduced in 5, and isn't vital to 5's plot, so it needs to be it's own story as well. Not to mention how 3's plot has little too nothing to do with 6, and is literal hundreds of years ago at that point, so there's no point telling 3's events with 6.
And 2? 2 is backstory for a character who is in all of the above mentioned stories (immortality shenanigans) but is only massively relevant until 3, so if i tell 3, I need to tell 2. But I can't tell 2 before 3 because 2 spoils 3's plot twists.
And 1? Well 1 is the least fleshed out of them all, and doesn't have much plot. However, it needs to exist for story reasons.
7 gets tacked on the end because it spoils everything. (The way lotr spoils the hobbit (kinda)), and is important because it's the fulfilment of the massive overarching story at work through all of this.
*deeps breaths*
So yes, I could rewrite it to . . . not be this way. But I really like how the story and characters are. The drama and the tension between characters plays out in an interesting way that I'm happy with.
I'm good plot outline I've got, and if it means a weird reading order I'm okay with that.
SpoilerAlso, I might mention that if you've already read it through once, you can read again in chronological order with no issues. There will even be references you can only pick up on if you've already read it all once over.
SpoilerBut for now this all exists in brain and will do so until I have the guts to start writing things down

I heard she's apparently revealed to be force sensitive. I'm fine with that, but apparently that's not the common opinion and I don't get it
that's . . . not exactly what happened (and I'll tell you this because it's discussed in like, the second episode, so its not really spoiler)
basically: Ahsoka tried to take Sabine on as a padawan, probably more because she already understands combat a good deal, and Ahsoka doesn't have access to a whole lot of other people she could train.
{mild mild mild spoilers, like I said above}
the show discusses how they tried this apprenticeship, but butted heads a lot, and Ahsoka ended up calling it quits because things weren't working very well, (and in my opinion, I'm sure there were more important things taking her attention at the time), and because Sabine struggles to access the force
time passes blah blah, Ahsoka finds the map to Ezra/Thrawn, this is the premise of the show as I'm sure you know.
Sabine and Ahsoka decide to resume her training because they'll be working together to find Ezra anyway, and Sabine wants to be stronger etc. etc. they make up mostly and etc.
But they make it clear that Sabine struggles to access the force. Shes not naturally gifted with it the way our general Jedi character would be. She's shown attempting to move simple objects and failing, attempting to use it in fights and failing. We haven't seen her use it on screen at all yet.
Now, Ahsoka insists (correctly) that the force is inside everyone, and with enough discipline Sabine can use it. I think a good analogy for this would be Princess Lea, who really wasn't obviously gifted in the force and never used in the movies she's present in. But that didn't stop her from training as a Jedi and making a lightsaber because she did have a slight inclination to the force.
So, suffice it to say, yes Sabine will probably use the force. But (in my a opinion)i n a way that will be believable, and small scale enough to make sense. It's a bit out of pocket but I can see honestly see it working and it didn't really surprise me, especially since we've seen her use the dark saber to some effectiveness (which could hint at slight force sensitivity)
sorry that ended up being super long.

how do you-
how do you get yourself to play video games?
like actually make yourself grab the controller and start playing?
Cause I have several games I love, and want to play. But my brain can't fathom playing them? Like for some reason I can't get myself to get off the couch and walk 2 feet over to get the switch.
And so I just sit there.
There are some days when I'm tired from school and don't have the brain power to play games, but on days when I'm perfectly fine I still can't do it.
Why is this so hard?
Like yeah, I could be doing more productive things I guess, like schoolwork or drawing or whatnot. But in reality, if I don't pull out the game, I just sit there and watch tv instead.
So it's not like I'm missing out on being productive because I'm not going to be more productive anyway.
Why can't I do it? Why I am typing this and not pulling the game out? Why isn't Kass in Totk?

Weird idk life update:
SpoilerOkay so . . .
I'm gonna share this here because I don't know what else to do with the info, and I need advice.
I've been doing some research, and I did a few online screener/ test thingies and:
Spoiler
(Some of these are tests for adults, but often times that's meant to include teenagers/ the alternative is for little kids, so I took the liberty of taking adult tests)
So yeah, it's a thing . . .
It makes a lot of sense, in my mind. And I think it could be one of the reasons why I've been having such a hard time with my mental health lately.
I just have no idea how to explain this to my parents. Or if I should try to get a diagnosis or not. I just don't know what to do, I feel very stuck

So, not to invalidate how you feel, but these tests tend to score you a little higher than you actually are. I have taken many of these, especially about things I don’t have in any way, and it tells me “oh yeah you could benefit from seeking professional attention”. So… I wouldn’t trust these websites with all my heart. They are very inaccurate in my experience. Once again, that doesn’t mean you can’t be struggling with anything of this, it might be a good indicator that you do, but as we’ve been told all our lives, don’t trust everything you see on the internet
No, your totally good bro! This is why I shared this here, because I wanted to see others opinions and get some advice. I definitely think somethings (for want of a better word) wrong, I'm just at the point where I'm trying to figure out what exactly that is (for ex. I also have a ton of symptoms for depression and anxiety, but sometimes that's misunderstood autism . . . so I'm just in the stage of trying to understand stuff). I'm not using the tests as a way to say I have this, just as a reason to believe it might be worth looking into.
Like I said, I've been struggling with mental health a lot the last few years, I'm just currently trying to determine the cause. I definitely plan on doing more research.
Thanks for the input!

I actually find this really funny because there's a youtube channel that i watch called Caryn and Connie and they do a bunch of different builds in the Sims 4 and other architecture and interior design games, and in practically every video that they have, they talk about putting clutter and multiple individual items on the tops of furniture at least once. and in my opinion, i think that the clutter makes the room look a lot nicer and makes it feel more homey.

I finally finished The Sunlit Man, which means I've read all of the current Cosmere stuff which is pretty cool. (It took me two years . . . .)
I'm looking for some new stuff to read, and I was wondering if you guys had anything to request? I do have some things in reading list to get to, but I'm not in the mood to read them yet (lol) and I thought it might be exciting to read something I haven't had on my shelf for years already.
Specifically I'm looking for clean fantasy (I have a one track mind) that's on the shorter side, maybe a stand alone or trilogy.
Thoughts?

Thanks Eddie, I'll try it out!
Bookwyrm:
Spoileralright so, of course I completely respect your opinion dude, but here's what I didn't like about Ender's game:
(Also please keep in mind I read this book around a year ago, so the details are a little fuzzy)
-I found the entire concept and vibe of the book very disturbing, which I think is a product of a lot of my other reasons, but even from the first chapter it just felt wrong. I have no idea how to describe it . . . Maybe it was the syndical/realist tone and narration? There's nothing wrong with that sort of tone but in this book it felt so . . . flippant that it seemed really off putting to me. This is probably just me and my personal biases but it just felt really . . . gross? I don't even know.
-There were a few lines at the beginning of the book about Ender's sister that made the story feel a little sexist? I'm probably misinterpreting that but once again, it was enough to bother me. I can't remember if those lines were said by a character or the narrator, so I don't know if it was meant to be a character flaw or not. It's not super important, but worth mentioning.
-I personally feel like we were given very little reason to care about any of the characters. That being said a lot of the character tropes and personalities used in this books are ones I don't really like in the first place so . . .
-The MC was a mary sue. He was more brilliant and more hardworking and more dedicated than all of the other characters. Don't get me wrong, an op MC can be done right, but for it to work the characters power level cannot be the point of the story. And yet in Ender's game, it felt like it was. Ender just hurtled forward through every challenge given him, and maybe he does fail a little here and there, but almost always the lesson felt like 'well, I'm Ender so I'll just do better next time.'
It felt like he had little to no arc at all, and that leads into my second point:
-His character arc on a moral/psychological standpoint really bothered me. As the story progressed he seemed to really only get worse. Correct me if he did improve in some way (that isn't physically) but it seemed like every time he changed, he became more hardened, more stern, and more angry. Once again, I don't mind this. Corruption (for want of a better word) arcs can be done well, and I'm no stranger to liking morally grey (also for want of a better word) characters. That being said the story has to call them out on it. The story HAS to stay (whether through a narrator or through other characters): 'Hey, what this dude is doing is kind of messed up.' But it never did . . . he just became this cold shell of what he used to be, and everyone applauded and called him a hero. I understand he needed to be stern because of the military environment, but you can have a 'stern army general' archetype and still have them show real kindness and compassion once in a while. Ender became something that doesn't feel human in my opinion, and the book did little to say 'hey this is not great maybe he needs help.' All I'm asking for is one scene where he and his friends hang out and they have a heart to heart and someone (heaven forbid) actually treat Ender with some kindness.
-The adults are all terrible people and once again no one calls them out on it. 'Oh yeah, lets emotionally abuse and manipulate a child for years because the fate of the world depends on it or something' Come on . . . the fact that they're using children at all feels unrealistic to me. I don't care if they're geniuses or hyper-talented. There will always be an adult with more experience and more skill then some kid--even if that kid comes out of the womb doing college level math. It just doesn't make sense to me.
-My other big problem with the adults is whenever Ender accidentally kills someone, they don't tell him. I don' know about you, but if I accidentally murdered someone, I want to know. They're betraying Ender's trust in them, all while acting like they're some kind of hero's for keeping the 'harsh truth' from him. I'm sorry, but they should have told him. If they'd have told him, then he could actually learn from it. Ender could re-evaluate himself, and work on self control. Instead they let him continue to recklessly charge forward, and never let him experience consequences for his actions.
-His siblings's sublot felt . . . so out there. It was just so unrealistic. Once again, I don't care if they're genius children, that's not enough to convince me they're capable of getting the entire earth to believe that they're competitive politicians with opposite views effectively manipulating adults with experience and education in this area to do whatever they want. I think this might be why the book feels so jarring to me. The tone of the story and narration is very realist, dare I say pessimistic. But the plot is constantly going into wild and unbelievable directions. It clashes and feels really disorienting as a reader.
-Also, this is just a nitpick, but when Ender's sister and brother hack into their parents computer to get unlimited internet access, why does it never occur to the sister to seek help? She has a physically abusive and psychotic brother, and emotionally neglectful parents. Why didn't she contact the police? Or get info for running away? If it were, me that's what I'd have done. I understand that she wanted to be a part of the politics scheme, but once again the fact that world-wide politics fell onto a child as her responsibility is wild to me. If there was a reason why she couldn't get help or run away the book should have told us!
-I very strongly dislike the end of the book and the plot twist reveals. When it was revealed that the Buggers are a hive-mind, my immediate reaction was indifference. Sure, we weren't given that much info on them to begin with, but if you want a reader to anticipate answers to questions you have to introduce the questions to them in the first place. The reader has to know that a mystery exists for them to be excited when it's solved. The plot twist at the very end of the book was terrible. 'You were fighting the real bad guys the whole time and it wasn't just a simulation.' How is that supposed to be engaging to the reader? Any tension or expectation for a final battle is destroyed and the reader is left feeling disappointed because what they thought was rising tension was just the climax in disguise. There's no impact, there's no struggle for a win. Once again, Ender won because he's Ender. It annoys me to no end. (See my point about the realist tone clashing with the unrealistic events). If I were to write it, I would make the simulation actually just a simulation, and let Ender truly fight the buggers like we expected him too. The book would be longer, ( I don't mind long books) but Card could have done a time skip showing Ender's progress as he got older, and then the final battle. Squishing it all together didn't subvert reader's expectations, it betrayed them. It honestly feels like lazy writing to me.
-The ending section that does timeskip and talk about the future felt very out of place. Like I said above, I already had little reason to care about the characters in the first place, and now I'm meant to feel something when they do stuff later in life? It felt like an exposition dump and was really boring to read. It was probably set up for the next book, but if that's the case then why isn't just a prologue for the next book? Or the lore could just be implied/ integrated to the next book. Shoving it all here feels lazy. I guess there is Ender's arc about his relationship with the Buggers, but that wasn't really expanded upon in the first place and once again I'm left without reason to care. Also, Peter's apology before he died also felt unprecedented and weird. We were given vary little reason to believe he'd do so and his character arc never alluded to it. A last minute change of heart felt out of pocket and I'll be honest, hard to accept. The damage he did was already done, and it's not like he worked to fix any of it. I don't understand why he didn't just die without ever admitting anything he did was was wrong--it would way more in character.
whoops that was a really long rant . . . sorry
. I guess I have strong opinions about this book. Once again I respect your opinion, everyone interprets fiction differently and I think it's really cool you can enjoy something I couldn't.
The sequel does sound not as bad (especially if Ender isn't in it . . . I very strongly dislke him) so I guess I'll think about it . . . I don't know.
Why ever not: Sure you can message me! I might not respond immediately but I'd love to chat about it!

You're all so positive about it, it makes me really happy
we have like 2 ish feet of snow on the ground right now though, and it just keeps piling higher (Most of the piles made by snow plows are taller than me!)

that's what google said lol . . . I should clarify it's 1500 words, which could be a different number depending on the formatting, but still pretty short

Wait wait wait

I've never heard of that before . . . but after a google . . .
that would probably count as flash fiction, but do keep in mind that the lengths are general and there's no hard and fast rules. It's just good to know what to call your story depending on the length
